There is allot of freedom with 3DP , that a complex shape to machine , yes it doable with a cnc mill but not everyone has one of those . What modeling software are you working with Joules ?
I have been thinking of maybe hydro dipping or even plating 3DP parts .
Cheers Rob
Joules:
The software I use here is Rhino, export's are STL to Simplify3D for printing.
Better buttons and insets for the power and scope input. Very easy to visualise ideas, such as sculpting out the rotary dial area to the outer edge so they are easier to access and rotate by 90 degree the knob grips. 8-) it's addictive.
Hydro dipping works, you just have to get a good surface finish on the prints (they wet sand well). Electro plating kits exist but cost a ridiculous amount for what they are. However it's not rocket science to do in the kitchen when the wife is out :thumbup:

On the other hand, should you have an expired tortoise that could become your scope case and save all this 3D printing hassle :lol:
